Publisher's Binding

Unidentified Designer

Bound in charcoal grey vertically ribbed cloth in a simple, yet elegant design of a Chinese folding screen stamped in silver with the title "Hidden Beauties" above it, prominently stamped in outlined gilt letters. Author and title stamped in gilt to spine. Note: The choice of the folding screen perfectly illustrates the title, enticing the reader to discover what is behind the screen--wisdom, beauty, secrets?
